MiitKad - Word Sword - a Minimalist Editor


This is a dead-simple editor, in the vein of DarkRoom and WriteRoom. I'd be very surprised if it is of interest to many people, but it is a fun little thing to play around with for me.

The tool is a Windows based (Visual Basic 6) editor that opens a big black box with green lettering. Ctrl-R for file reading dialog, Ctrl-W to write. Ctrl-P to print (using current font). Ctrl-Z to quit.

Ctrl-D switches to the Mandalorian font (of COURSE), Ctrl-A switches to the Aurek-Besh font, Ctrl-E goes to Engli-Besh (if these are installed) and Ctrl-N goes to "Normal" (Courier New).

(Go to http://www.geocities.com/TimesSquare/4965/sffont.html to get the Aurek-Besh font. For the Mandalorian font, go to http://www.erikstormtrooper.com/mandalorian.htm . For the clever Engli-Besh go to http://erikstormtrooper.com/englibesh.htm)

I've added a simple help with F1, and a command to call up a dictionary program (you need to set up a batch file; see the readme.txt file).

That is ALL it does. No search and replace, no Find. You've got plenty of ways to do that already I'd guess. (HOPE!).


Click here to download. Unzip and run the program wherever you please. No warranty and all that... use at your own risk.
FWIW, the name comes from Mandoa, miit == word, kad == sword. Mando'a language is from the Star Wars universe, as detailed in Karen Traviss's novels and is copyright protected.
